Goiner, Phillips Lead Winners at FRBR Door Wars

Gonier, Thoman, Phillips, and Lawrence captured wins at the FRBR 8th Annual Blittersdorf’s Automotive Door Wars: Battle off the Bottom.

MOHNTON, PA- The FRBR Promotions 8th Annual Blittersdorf’s Automotive Door Wars: Battle Off the Bottom took place from October 4-6, 2024, at Maple Grove Raceway. The event featured three $10K races, the $1,644-to-win Dave Anderson Memorial Shootout, and a $1,000 FREE entry “Change Your Luck” Shootout. Due to rain on Friday, the decision was made to combine two of the $10K races into one $20K race, which was held on Saturday. Sunday’s $10K proceeded as scheduled.

Next up for the FRBR Promotions team is the 2nd Annual Footbrake Feast on November 15-17, 2024 at Maryland International Raceway.
